[ubuntu-us-ma] 10,000+ files in a folder slows down ...

[Brian DeLacey]

Does anyone have experience with folders containing lots of files in Ubuntu?
Like 10,000+? The files are relatively small - the total disk size is under
1G.

Ubuntu's GUI seems to have a difficult time managing folders of this size
(eg. attempting to "select all" and copy so many individual/small files to
another folder hangs - or takes incredibly long.)

Any suggestions on how to manage this large number of small files
efficiently?

Thanks,
Brian
